Wanna buy a football team?

PrintOkay, the Rams season is lost, and it's getting hard to find things to talk about, "hey, how about that Donnie Jones?"
We know the entire organization is in desperate need of a makeover, especially the top of it. With that, here's a crazy thought for the day: why not Mark Cuban?
To heck with buying a baseball team, buy the Rams. No idea whether or not the Mavs owner has any interest in joining the NFL's elite ownership club, but we do know or at least have reason to believe, that the Rams owner wants out. And the match made in heaven doesn't end there. The Rams need organizational leadership committed to winning. An owner like Cuban, who hates losing, would instantly give the entire franchise a completly new pyshcological make up, banishing the ghosts of a troubled recent history.
He might have to clear this little insider trading blip first...
Now again, let me be clear, I'm just playing armchair general here; there's nothing out there even remotely indicating such a rumor. Besides, he's probably too smart to sink money into this outfit. Still, talk about a complete flip in a franchise's makeup. Cuban would annoy many, but I'd take that over the profit taking mentality that's governed the team for too long now.

Cuban's going to jail.
Well, maybe not jail. But he might find himself in a little hot water with the SEC.
Our country reeks of trees. Our yaks are really large. And they smell like rotting beef carcasses. And we have to clean up after them. And our saddle sores are the best. We proudly wear women's clothing. While searing sand blows up our skirts.
And the buzzards, they soar overhead. And poisonous snakes will devour us whole. Our bones will bleach in the sun. And we will probably go to hell. And that is our great reward. For be-ing the-uh Ro-yal Canadian Kilted Yaksmen!
Whoops
That’ll teach me not to read the entire post before I go making comments. I’m catching up on a lot of reading here right now and lowered my standards to accept scanning as a reliable from of “reading”…….
